[aisle] book suggestions

[Christine Wilson]

It seems to me that you can't get all that information and nuance in one or
two books, but will have to have students pick a location and research
culture, political structure, economics, ecology, and changes to all that.
It doesn't have to be heavy (we recently read *The Water Walker* by Joanne
Robertson, a picture book that discusses First Nations reactions to water
and air pollution), or long. Anything that cues in to point of view in one
setting will help them take it to another setting.

Good luck!
